d264c53a1d Add support for installing serial bootblocks. If biosboot_com0.sym exists
on the ramdisk image then ask which set of bootblocks to install (normal or
serial). If it doesn't exist, just install the normal ones. (small/tiny
images).

fa875fd970 Welcome message `If you booted from a floppy,...' is somewhat port-specific
instruction.
Create md_hello message and move that message to it.

Port-maintainers: please reflect the reality of your port.
Someone who can write french: please correct *.fr catalogue.

the whole partition, and the total disksize.

e615284d83 * In md_init, determine what kind of bootfloppy we are (either
by checking uname, or the BOOTMODEL environment var), and set
  the kernel setname accordingly for some bootmodels (tiny and laptop),
  to install GENERIC_TINY and GENERIC_LAPTOP respectively. There's
  no sense in installing plain GENERIC, especially on "tiny" systems;
  it may not even make it far enough to add swapspace on 4M machines.
* Make sure to always install bootcode into the MBR (unless the user
  explicitly tells us not to). Should fix PR#8887, PR#9093, PR#9999

891f175906 beware whitespace at ends of lines in messages: it's actually meaningful!
while here, clean up other whitespace at EOLs in msg files to make grepping
easier.

1517a78b6d minor adjustments to make this stuff display properly with the automatic

5c3428778d convert tables to use the new table formatting functons. i386 tested,
mac68k and bebox bits compiled to the extent possible.  (bebox seems
broken, with duplicated menu names, but it doesn't look like that's my
fault.)
